Acorne Plc Launch New Rewards Business Channel Acorne Rewards

PRLog - Apr. 23, 2014 - BOURNE END, U.K. -- Acorne plc has announced the launch of Acorne Rewards, a brand new corporate channel for its business clients.

Acorne Rewards is home to an industry leading portfolio of leisure brands including experience days and gift cards Virgin Experience Days, Leisure Vouchers, The Virgin Gift Card and The AA Rosette Restaurant Voucher.

Acorne plc was a pioneer of the experience day sector when it formed in 1989 to launch the UK’s first ever nationwide gift voucher for Flying Lessons. The company developed its business via organic growth and strategic acquisition to incorporate gift cards and vouchers.

Tim Watkins, Head of Sales & Partnerships at Acorne, said:

“All our brands have such a strong individual presence that often corporate clients don’t realise the portfolio also benefits from being part of the Acorne family.

“Acorne Rewards is a fantastic one stop shop for experience days and leisure gifts cards. With such a diverse and popular range of products, we can constantly refresh employee rewards and customer engagement programmes without the hassle of having to find a new supplier.

“All our brands are immersed in the Acorne culture which means all business customers benefit from high standards of support from a dedicated business manager, marketing, customer service and finance teams, with no hidden management fees.”

More information about the employee reward and customer engagement solutions available from Acorne Rewards and the people behind the name can be found at our new dedicated business web site www.acornerewards.co.uk created by Acorne’s talented in house design team.
